Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your sauce. Look for ripe tomatoes, briny olives, and plump anchovies.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the anchovies and garlic, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make the sauce bitter.
- Cook the sauce slowly: Simmering the sauce for at least 30 minutes will allow the flavors to meld and develop. Be patient and don't rush the process.
- Season to taste: Taste the sauce as you're cooking it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may need to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.
- Serve immediately: Anchovy olive pasta sauce is best served immediately over hot pasta. It can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.

Anchovy olive pasta sauce is a simple yet delicious sauce that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. With its briny, salty flavor, it is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new pasta sauce recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
